Winery and Vineyard Assistant Wanted

Soaring Wings Vineyard and Brewing is a highly successful winery near Omaha. It has won hundreds of medals in International Wine Competitions. Approximately 50,000 visitors a year visit the winery. I am the owner and also see to operations, winemaking, and brewing. Want to retire.

We are in need of someone with winemaking experience or an enology background. The will start as an assistant winemaker and will assist in the vineyard. My hope is that person will take over winemaking operations in the future. Pay is negotiable, but will be modest till the employee proves their worth. Brewing is an occasional job from time to time.

Down the road, as the owner, I still have a final say in operations, but really do not want to participate unless really needed. So artistic license and initiative are important. We would like to see the winery grow more. There is much potential to do so.

If you wish to work for us you must be personable. Meeting and talking with people is part of the job.
